‘EBONY’ MAGAZINE’S ‘BODY BRIGADE’ ISSUE

As always, EBONY makes a strong statement with a stunning cover. With a story penned by Tomika Anderson, the March issue stars powerhouses Jazmine Sullivan and Chrisette Michele, Orange Is The New Black star Danielle Brooks, and style blogger/swimwear designer Gabi Fresh. These five Black women are unapologetic in their image, and their confidence shines in the editorial shots, as well as in the story itself. Anderson shares:

We are all Black women who have had varying struggles with weight, food and body acceptance. Unlike me, my dining mates lead public lives. In this exclusive conversation, you will be privy to their raw emotional honesty and sound intellect, and whether you are someone who could have joined us for the meal or someone who has never engaged in the body image battle, you will learn how critical, complicated, contradictory and sometimes completely satisfying the relationship between big Black women and their bodies is.
